another tuesday goes by with no mention of console beta

Conquers

please zenimax, just give us a sign! say its delayed! say its on track! say the beta is in may! ANYTHING, before all console hype is gone. im downloading FF14 atm, just cause I'm becoming so impatient. Fellow forum dwellers, please, if you wanna come here to say "this game sucks" or "PC4lyfe" just do not post. There is enough hate already.

I am not hating on consoles but the game will probably port next month for beta, if they even do a beta. With a majority of their efforts on the PC or (parent) version of the game you should be happy they aren't rushing a console beta. I am sure that all the bugs from the PC launch will be addressed come console time. Just relax, just because it released for PC does not mean the console version is ready.

Sure, you can think that no "console beta" news are bad. But at least you have general date of this version being released in (or close to) June
I dont even think there should be any console beta, and dont remember that it was ever advertised


Now, how about some info about EU server other then "maybe someday" ???

As a formal console player, I send my condolences for the lack of any updates

They dont care about consoles because concoles and mmo do not mix together well. There arent that many console mmo players out there so its just not worth it.

Well its been announced for a while that its GOING to be on ps4 and Xbox, so its safe to assume they would have at least some sort of update/info on it.

If they just do a straight port of the game as it stands now with the PC version. Given the bugs and other problems that are making the game a lot less enjoyable than it should be. I would guess that there would be very few people playing it on a console after the initial month.

It will obviously be an console version, it will also be an console beta.
Where is no issues playing ESO with an controller, yes chat will be and obious problem but not much else.

However the console beta will be more like an demo than an actual beta as they don't need to test the servers much so it will probably be an short and intense campain.

how is this even an argument? there have been console MMOs since early last gen. DCUO, FF14RR, Phantasy Star Universe (i played this for a while, and it was a very good game, just not worth the sub fee), and much more i assume

ETA is June 30 for the game. The server structure is identical. And most of the bugs etc if worked out on the PC servers will carry over to the code for console. The only real testing will be a possible stress test to show interest, and some bug testing of the UI. Which means they could wait easily til the end of May. So news may not even really start appearing for another few weeks.

I started a thread here for concrete information:
forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/86259/eso-on-consoles
Two important points:

1. @thedemiseraphb14_ESO mentions a June 30 launch date; this is speculative as only June as a launch window has been stated.
2. A beta for consoles is at it's core hear-say.

I know That's why I said ETA. Estimated
